Tiivistelmä
This thesis work was carried out for the medical engineering department of HUS Logistics which is part of the Hospital district of Helsinki and Uusimaa.
Target of this thesis work was divided into two parts. First part was to create a comprehensive report template for annual maintenance of two different respiratory humidifiers manufactured by Fisher & Paykel Healthcare. As it is required by regulations and Finnish law, maintenance procedure must be carried out in accordance with manufacturers` manual so any additional information on maintenance improvement were acquired from engineering personnel and actual device testing.
Second part was to unify the cost of the maintenance service for both humidifiers as the differences in cost charges differed greatly from each other. This was to be achieved by comparing the length of multiple timed maintenance and averaging the duration of them.
Thesis work resulted in tested maintenance template and unified cost of said service for one of the humidifiers. Unfortunately, due to newness and availability of the other device, it was possible to create only a preliminary version of the template, which also meant that no set maintenance time to base the cost off of was not achieved.
